Re: *1st Tri Check-In 1/18* NEW LEADER NEEDED IN TWO WEEKS!
I hope you all had a great weekend. Mine was insane! Had my sister's bridal shower and then wedding party all on Sat. Even though I didn't drink I felt like crap the next day. Went to bed at like 11 pm. UGH was not fun, then chasing a toddler around and then ended up with a damn migraine. What fun!
I'm almost 12 weeks! I can't believe it. Next Tuesday is my free cell DNA blood draw and a week or so after that I will have the results and know the sex of my baby! INSANE! I can't wait!
How do I relieve my stress, and I seriously have some hormonal stress, I read. I know, I read a lot, but it so helps or I vent to a friend. Lately I feel like I am about to lose it and I know it's the hormones. I especially want to lose it at work. OMG this guy always blows his nose and sounds like a blow horn, I swear I want to scream at him. Little things are really starting to piss me off. LOL Sorry for the rant. LOLwhew.

QOTW: I am definitely superrrrrr hormonal / cranky / moody lately... which certainly leads to some stress. Reading and episodes of New Girl have helped put a smile on my face. Also, we started to plan the nursery so that has distracted me from this whole being laid off soon thing. And (cheesy, I know) my husband has been so amazing and so supportive lately which has been a huge stress-reliever for me
@TerraMae80 I can't wait to hear if you are having a little boy or girl!!! YAY!
See all of you over in second trimester land soon!
(Loss Mentioned and Child Mentioned)
@TerraMae80 i didn't realize you can find out so soon. Excited to hear what it is :-)
My SIL had her gender reveal this weekend...she's expecting a little boy in May, so happy for her!
My partner and i got to hear our little ones heartbeat for the first time today. It was such an out of this world experience, I almost started crying. I wish I would have thought to record it because it sounded sooo soothing. Maybe next visit. My RE says that she'll be discharging me next week if all continues to go well. Almost 7 weeks down for us.
QOTD: Still trying to figure this one out completely, but lately I've gotten into the adult coloring books (with markers, colored pencils stressed me out lol)
08/2015 at home IUI = BFN
IUI #4 - 08/2016 - 100MG Clomid + Ovidrel = ???
@vnegron87 How exciting that you heard the heartbeat! It truly is amazing, isn't it!?
I'm 11w3d, and I'm definitely starting to have a little bump now, which does surprise me since it seems too early for that (this is my first). I caved and went shopping for maternity pants over the weekend. I took my mom along and she's definitely a bad influence! I bought so much more than I was planning to (like shirts, I wasn't planning on buying any of those)! Oh well, during our time TTC, I didn't really allow myself to buy clothes, so it was kinda nice to get some retail therapy in!
We have our NT screening u/s and b/w scheduled for next Monday. I'm excited and nervous all in one about it. My fetal doppler started to cause me stress since I still wasn't able to find the heartbeat as of Sunday. I decided to put it away since I went from not being concerned at all to starting to feel something was wrong. It's definitely made me a little more nervous about Monday's ultrasound, but I'm trying to focus on my physical changes, like my growing belly despite no weight gain.
For stress relief, I'd probably have to say my barre class or belting out songs in my car (I'm a TERRIBLE singer).
Yeah I was a little shocked when my doc mentioned this blood test, I guess it's fairly new, it wasn't mentioned with my last pregnancy and that was only two years ago.
@riveridgional How exciting about the scan!!! And omg I sing in my car too, lately it's been the T. Swift album and Adele.
Don't stress over that doppler, those things are so tricky! The little baby is so small and moving around a lot it's hard to track them.

So my big stress is this stupid Zika virus. We're going on a cruise in 3 weeks and we are cancelling our excursions to be safe. Stupid mosquitos!
Hope everyone else is having a good week!!

I've been doing some meditation, acupuncture, and coloring. I weaned off Zoloft when I found out I was pregnant, and I'm feeling strangely peaceful - even with the prospect of twins rocking my world!
